A multi-isotope compact AMS system at China institute of atomic energy
Following the trend of AMS instrument miniaturization, a compact multi-isotope AMS system for 14C, 26Al, 236U, 239,240Pu etc. has been developed at China Institute of Atomic Energy (CIAE). Using this self-developed compact AMS, the measurement methods of 129I, 236U, and plutonium isotopes have been established. This system achieves transmission efficiencies of 46 % for 129I and 30 % for actinides. The abundance sensitivity for 129I reaches 1.5 × 10−14, the abundance sensitivity for 236U/238U is < 2 × 10−14 and the detection limit for plutonium achieves 0.1 fg.
期刊介绍:
Section B of Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research covers all aspects of the interaction of energetic beams with atoms, molecules and aggregate forms of matter. This includes ion beam analysis and ion beam modification of materials as well as basic data of importance for these studies. Topics of general interest include: atomic collisions in solids, particle channelling, all aspects of collision cascades, the modification of materials by energetic beams, ion implantation, irradiation - induced changes in materials, the physics and chemistry of beam interactions and the analysis of materials by all forms of energetic radiation. Modification by ion, laser and electron beams for the study of electronic materials, metals, ceramics, insulators, polymers and other important and new materials systems are included. Related studies, such as the application of ion beam analysis to biological, archaeological and geological samples as well as applications to solve problems in planetary science are also welcome. Energetic beams of interest include atomic and molecular ions, neutrons, positrons and muons, plasmas directed at surfaces, electron and photon beams, including laser treated surfaces and studies of solids by photon radiation from rotating anodes, synchrotrons, etc. In addition, the interaction between various forms of radiation and radiation-induced deposition processes are relevant.
